Superbowl 2010 (where to watch)

adamski8

Apologies for starting this thread with the superbowl 3 weeks away.
I just wanted to know if people know where in dublin city center will it be shown?
Also where is the best place to watch it, atmosphere but not packed out if possible.

I know I have seen threads here before previous years. I have always watched it at home so I want to sort it out with mates now to see if we'll go out for it this year.

I'd find it very hard to imagine there is a better place in Dublin to watch the SuperBowl than the Woolshed. Beer flowing for the first 3 quarters at least, full game shown, food available and a top class atmosphere.

Woolshed ftw.(I don't work for them by the way!)

adrian522

McSorleys in Ranelagh have the game also. It's a lete bar so should be serving for most of it.

I've been to the woolshed before but not for the superbowl. Is it usually absolutely packed then? Also what time roughly would you have to get there to have a chance of getting seats?

Ring them and book a table if you have a group of folk traveling in.

Max Power1

is this on any uk tv station other than Sky or Five?

adamski8

was on bbc last year anyway. didnt think channel 5 had the rights to it

Eire-Dearg

Its not on FIVE, its possibly on BBC and its definately on Sky.

Am I raving or was the Superbowl on TV3 before a few years back? For some reason I seem to recall them having it...

helimachoptor

Just to add to this, was in there on sunday and one of the girls said that the staff hadn't discussed the superbowl yet so she wasn't sure if they were taking bookings.

helimachoptor

Thanks lads, will give them a call later anyway to find out.

mickmc7

A mate told me earlier today the portabello are deffo showing it too.

gerire

We were in the Portobello for last weeks Jets game and they did have a huge poster up in the window advertising it;

We were left there for all of both of Sundays games so I doubt it would be any different for the Big one;

Still saying that Im off to the woolshed

adamski8

Anyone been to dadelion to watch the game? I hear it is ticket or invitation only this year or something. Doesnt look like the best place to watch it (i havent been there before) but aparently there will be free coors there or something

The Dublin Rebels are sponsored by Dandelion. As far as I know it is their Superbowl Party and it is supposed to be an excellent night. Ask Lothar on here he is one of their coaches. Oh and they have a huge screen in there for sports.

TV3 showed the last 2 (international feed) and won't be showing this years

BBC showed international in 08 and had the NBC feed last year. its on agian, but I wouldn't be sure whether they'll take international feed or CBS feed

elvis jones

I'll be in Lanzarote so have to locate somewhere over there and it will start an hr later as well !

Hi adamski8,
Don't worry about the invite-only thing. We're expecting a good turnout this year, but it is open to all-comers. Turn up on the night and you'll be fine. Mention the Dublin Rebels and you'll be even finer!

It's a cracking place to watch the Bowl. We were there last year - there's a big HUGE screen down the end, with plasma everywhere, so you can't miss the game. We have box-betting and spot prizes and stuff through the night. Lots of US-themed stuff too - cheerleaders etc.

The bar stays open late too, as it's a nightclub. There was an electric atmosphere there last year. Oh yeah... the Pussycat Dolls turned up last year FFS! They wanted to watch the game after their concert in the O2. Not the really hot one, just the cute blond and the ones that look like trannies. Still - PCD!

And there's free beer! That's the best bit. Limited supply, but still very nice.

BTW - that's an open invitation to all boards.ie users.

Hope to see you there!

I just rang the Arlington in Temple Bar and they told me that no decision has been made as of yet about showing the game or not. Closing time on a Sunday - unless a different decision is made - is 23:00.

ok thats convinced me, not the pussycat dolls thing though!
You know what the best time to show up would be?....for seats and possibly free beer

Lothaar v2

Nice one. The earlier the better, really, as the free beer will be available until it has all been quaffed. I for one will be exercising my right to SB-night quaffage with great enthusiasm.

recyclops

Torn between dandelion and the woolshed, i have been goin woolshed for pretty much every sunday the past few months so its become a regular thing, never had a prob either but a change of atmosphere may be a good idea,

Lothaar v2

Just an update on the Dublin Rebels SB party in Dandelion.

It IS actually invite-only at the moment. We've just secured sponsorship from a major US drinks brand and it looks like lots of people will be going.

If you want to get on the guestlist, PM me with your name and email address and I'll put your name down. It shouldn't be a problem. Randomers trying to get in from the street on the night may have trouble if it's as packed as we're expecting.

Alright lads.

Have never been out for a NFL game. Usually just have bottles in my own with some friends. Anyways, thinking of heading the Woolshed for the match. What time would be best to get their? Guessing there's no chance in getting seats either unless I'm there early? Cheers lads

VinylJunkie

Woolshed for me, was excellent last year and Ive been there a few times this season.

Although might be worth taking Monday off work

helimachoptor

Can you book tables in the woolshed?? i've tried calling a few times but no answer.

I went in the other day to ask. With the crowd they're expecting and the chelsea arsenal game that afternoon they ain't taking bookings cause it would be to much hassle.

jagerluvinliamo

Guys does anyone know of any where showing it in Cork. I know the admiral used put on a party for the past few years but i havent heard anything about one this year.

Frisbee

Heading into the Woolshed at 3 for Cherlsea -v- Arsenal then just staying there.

Anyone know what kind of drink promo's they have on?
I know last year they had pitcher's for a tenner but nothing on the website about this year.

kelleyt2001

I just saw this website if you are looking for a place that will show the whole super bowl. It meets at the Porterhouse in Temple Bar at 8.30pm on Sunday 7 February. Looks like you get some food and drink specials as well during the night and a reserved area to watch the game. Here is the site:

Think they do pitchers all year round to be honest, great value if you're going to be doing the dog on it all day there, which I will be.:D

I wouldn't have thought so mate. I go to the Woolshed a lot and it's always been free in.

Says it's free in.

Hmmm wonder what that was for so.......

kelleyt2001

Hope to see some of you out. Will be going to D2 for the Super Bowl. Have a reserved area and wanna see the game.

Captain Americas are showing it, tickets are 5 euro, I don't jnow if you can buy tickets at the door though, it's part of UCCs rag week

BrandonFlowers

kmart6

Great crowd and atmosphere in The Woolshed last night.....majority of the crowd going for the Saints(much too my annoyance)!

The night is such a money maker for the place!
